Scientists have discovered a groundbreaking method to shield quantum information from 'noise' and potentially enable the construction of practical quantum computers.
Quantum computers rely on quantum entanglement, which allows for faster parallel processing. However, noise disrupts this 'coherence' and increases the error rate.
A team of physicists has found a way to preserve quantum information by encoding it in the topology of entangled photons, making it resilient to noise.
This approach could contribute to the development of quantum computers and networks that can overcome noise in any environment.
